Alarming Rise of Spinal Problems in India: Minimally Invasive Surgery to Deal With

Dec 30, 2022 by Rekha Nair 0 Comments

The changing lifestyle has increased spine-related problems across the world, and in India, it is on the alarming rise mainly due to unhealthy lifestyles, bad postures and sedentary jobs, stressful work-flow, and environmental degradation. The common problem majority of Indian face is – back pain because a sedentary lifestyle leads to weak muscles and ligaments, which do not support the back appropriately and, thus, predispose people to back pain. Spine infections, like tubercular infections, are much more common in India.

“The emerging spine-related problems in India may be due to an overall reduced physical activity of the society, but the inappropriate living conditions of a large segment of the population also contribute to it. A few pilot studies have suggested that 60 per cent of the Indian population will have a significant episode of spine-related problems at some point in their lives. But a healthy spine plays a significant role in healthy living. There are some spine-related problems where other treatment options do not work, and surgery is left as a lone treatment option. In such a situation, the procedure of Micro Endoscopy Spine (MES) surgery comes into play, putting the patient at ease,” Dr Manish Vaish, Director of Neurosurgery at Max Super Specialty Hospital, New Delhi.

For spine-related disorders, Micro Endoscopic Spine Surgery (MES) also called Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has proven to be a boon for patients because, in this surgery, surgeons use a variety of techniques to operate with maximally preserving the anatomy and minimal insult to the surrounding structures than with open surgery. Usually, it is safer than open surgery and allows the patient to recover faster and heal with less pain and wound.

Adding further Dr Manish Vaish said, “Micro Endoscopy Spine (MES) or Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) surgeries are setting new remedial paradigms to mitigate the sufferings of the patients struggling with spine-related disorders. The novel method devises an improved surgical precision that cuts down on blood loss besides lessening risks and entailing faster recovery ensuring healthy living. Minimally Invasive Surgery usually requires a short hospital stay. This offers dual advantages in terms of money and time and above all back to work or back with life.”

Of many spine-related problems, Spine TB, Spine tumour and Spine vascular malformations when reaching the advanced stage, need surgical treatments. Two surgical options to fix this problem are available – open surgery and the less invasive procedure, called endovascular repair. The choice of repair can depend on the size and location of the aneurysm. Nowadays, there is an increasing trend of spine tuberculosis, Spine tumours and Spine vascular malformations in the country. The symptoms of spinal tuberculosis are localized back pain, painful movements, fever, a hump in the back, excessive weight loss, and in worst cases, weakness of hands or legs. Likewise, in a Spine tumour, there is back pain, often radiating to other parts of your body, feeling less sensitive to pain, heat and cold, and loss of bowel or bladder function. And in Spine vascular malformations, there are balance or coordination problems, difficulty walking or climbing stairs, dizziness and headache.

“Spine-related diseases like Cervical Spondylosis, Arteries in brain tumours, Backache pain, Spine TB and Aneurysm commonly occur. However, most of them like Brain tumours, Spine TB and Brain aneurysms in their advanced stage need surgical treatments, where Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has been very successful as it helps fast recovery post-surgery. Bone and joint tuberculosis account for up to 35% cases of extrapulmonary tuberculosis,” Dr. Yashpal Singh Bundela, Senior Consultant, Brain and Spine Ppl, New Delhi.

Adding further on how Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) has been turning feasible and successful Dr Bundela added, “Like many spine-related problems, the prevalence of osteoporosis is also very high. It is among the highest in the world and no exact cause has been found for this so far. And the Asian population as such is predisposed to this. The most common surgical techniques used for osteoporosis are vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty. And both are ‘Minimally Invasive Surgical’ procedures.”

Delay in the medical treatment of spin-related problems despite treatment if they need surgery to fix the problems, they mustn’t hesitate and go for the surgery at the earliest. Surgery involves drainage of the inflammation area and stabilization using bone grafts or implants. Sometimes, improper medicinal treatments may aggravate the problem by creating drug-resistant bacteria which often become very difficult to treat. This is where Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) emerges as proven therapy to help patients to deal with their spine-related problems.

2022 – The year of residential real estate boom according to the Sattva Group

Dec 30, 2022 by Sujata Muguda 0 Comments

Mr. Bijay Agarwal MD Sattva Group

Bengaluru, December 30, 2022: “The real estate sector performed exceptionally well in 2022, a momentum it carried forward from 2021. The residential sector has done phenomenally well with developers registering good sales figures throughout the year, including SATTVA Group. To further establish this fact, one of the top-performing Indian cities, Bangalore, witnessed a steady upsurge in demand, in many parts of the city, particularly North Bangalore. One of our recent ventures, Sattva Aeropolis met with tremendous success, when we opened bookings in the first phase at the start of 2022. Talking about the industry at large, “Robust” would summarize the residential real estate in the past year. Despite climbing prices and loan rates, there has been a consistent demand for mid-range and premium housing in major cities. The numbers are optimistic enough in the face of a relatively steady economy: With nearly 4 lakh tier-1 units expected to be sold before the year ends, supply and absorption are rising, while the inventory overhang reduces substantially. As ready-to-occupy inventory has expanded for most players, there is also a growing demand among active home seekers, looking for an additional space of 100-150 sq. ft for workspaces in residences.

To our delight, the Bengaluru market stayed competitive for the whole of 2022; unsold inventory has fallen amidst buyers lining up for houses in the central and inner parts of the city. In Hyderabad, buyers jostled for a limited number of ready units, but we expect further activity to offset the pressure on the market. The third quarter has seen nearly 17,000 new launches, and we predict similar headwinds to uplift the region in the months ahead. Taking into account the factors as mentioned earlier, we foresee steady demand prevailing alongside resilient supply, as we step into 2023. The post-pandemic period and increase in rental rates have also elevated home ownership beyond its aspirational definition, with more people seeking long-term investments.” – Mr. Bijay Agarwal, MD, Sattva Group

Top financial management tips every startup should consider

Dec 30, 2022 by Rekha Nair 0 Comments

By S. Ravi, Former Chairman of BSE, Founder and Managing Partner of Ravi Rajan & Co.

Embroker’s analysis for 2022 estimates that 90% of start-ups fail – withfinancial mismanagement or running out of money being one of the main causes.

It is an undeniable fact that start-ups do depend greatly on financial support,whether it be from banks, investors, or personal sources. The handling of heavy cash influxes may sometimes become difficult for the start-up and thus itcollapses under the strain.Financial management is as crucial as challenging it can be for a neophyte at business.Besides managing duties like communications, sales, and marketing, managing money should also be on the top priority list for any new business.

Importance of wise finance management

New businesses must learn to manage their finances because it will help them attain their goals in a much quicker time. The following are some of the factors that make financial management crucial for businesses:

· Brings about economic stability

· Contributes to efficient business planning

· Aids in acquisition and allocation of monies

· Sharpens decision-making ability over money-related matters

· Reduces expenditure

· Increases the company’s value and profitability

· Makes the company’s vision for future growth clearer

Why start-ups fail

As per the data from Invest India there are over 77,000 DPIIT-recognised startups across 656 districs of India as on 29th August 2022. With start-ups mushrooming from different parts of the country, India has emerged as the third largest eco-system for start-ups.

But the pitfalls for start-ups come because of numerous factors contributing to the relatively high failure rates, and these are:

· Lack of a demand-meeting product or service

· Insufficient market study or awareness

· Poorly intuited and applied strategies

· Skills or knowledge gap

· Absence of timely guidance

· Cash flow issues

Speaking of the cash flow factor in particular, a lot of businesses also crash if they are launched with inadequatefunds, unrealistically high product or service costs, or wrong sales estimates.

Tips to establish a successful business

· Proper financial management system

You can’t use your personal account for your business transactionsand you mustn’t either. This will only add to confusion which may further grow into an unmanageable situation – especially during the tax season.There will also be a variety of documents to track, including invoices, receipts, and other forms of financial data. In order to prevent anything from getting lost in the confusion, make sure you have a system in place.

So set up a business account as your first step. Your next step will be hiring qualified staff for the accounting matters of your new business.

This won’t only help you gain better control of your fundsbut will also make your operations easier in the long run.

· Record your progress

You must track your success in relation to the goals you set for your company in order to identify the areas where you are succeeding and those that require improvement.

There are many options that you can use when considering monitoring techniques, such as follows:

§ Digital platforms and analytical tools for automated performance tracking

§ Regular market research for sales comparison with your rivals

§ Meetings and appraisals for better work output

· Budgeting and forecasting

At every new year’s beginning, create a budget for your team to strive toward. From there, you can check in every three months to make sure everything is in order.

Financial forecasts, on the other hand, are essential for understanding the direction and goals for your start-up. It also facilitates identification of issues at the first stage itself as well as guides you where to make investments.

· Cultivate enduring connections

To succeed in your business, having a solid network is really helpful. Establish connections with vendors, customers, affiliated businesses, and even your dependable accountant and banker. These are the individuals who will keep your company running. You may prefer to do it alone; still, keeping the right people happy will keep their support available to you whensoever necessary.

· Unruffled cash flow

Last but not the least, take care of your cash. It is the soul of your business. Without it, your dream project will die. Even the greatest of ideas will fall through if you do not have adequate financial supplies to realize them.

In order to maintain sufficiency of your cash reserves to settle your financial commitments, be prompt in collecting the money and ensuring that everyone pays their share of the agreement on time. And when you invoice, be sure to use right credit control practices.Additionally, it’s crucial to agree on fair conditions with your suppliers upfront and abide by them.

Perfecting the knack of cash management is fundamental to a business not only at its starting point but throughout its run as well.

The secret to starting a successful business and staying in business is to learn from your own and other businesses’ faux pas. In order to dominate in your industry, thrive in the competition, understand where you stand, and pay attention to all raging trends. After all, in the wise words of Natasha Munson, “Monety, like emotions, is something you must control to keep your life/business on the right track.”

32-Year-Old-Male weighing 120 Kgs successfully operated for the largest cardiac tumor via minimal invasive procedure at Fortis Malar

Dec 30, 2022 by Rekha Nair 0 Comments

-The size of the tumor was 11.5x8cms, as per the available medical records, this is the largest cardiac tumor operated in medical history –

Chennai, December 2022: A 32-year-old extremely obese, young man got a second chance at life after undergoing a challenging and rare cardiac tumor surgery at Fortis Malar Hospital, Chennai. Eminent doctors headed by Dr. Thejaswi N Marla, Clinical Lead, Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery, Fortis Malar treated the challenging case via minimally invasive keyhole surgery over conventional sternotomy.

The young patient was presented at Fortis Malar with symptoms of breathlessness and frequent episodes of giddiness. Post diagnosis, Dr. Manohar G, Senior Interventional Cardiologist identified that the symptoms were due to a very large cardiac tumor, in his right atrium. The large mass measuring 11.5×8 cms was completely blocking the blood flow to the right ventricle by occupying the entire right atrium. The clinical experts at Fortis Malar diagnosed the tumor at the appropriate time and successfully excised and rebuilt the chamber with a small incision. Cardiac tumors are a rare occurrences as cardiac tissues are very resistant to cancer. Unremoved cardiac tumors can be fatal as it blocks blood circulation.

Elaborating on the case Dr. Thejaswi N Marla, Clinical Lead, Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery, Fortis Malar said, “This is the largest cardiac tumor excised in medical history that too by a minimally invasive procedure. We diagnosed the 120 kgs male patient, with a tumour in the right atrium after performing echocardiogram and computerized tomography imaging. The mass in the right atrium was blocking blood flow to the ventricle, which is normally rare in the heart. If the mass had embolized it would have blocked the pulmonary artery leading to immediate death.

“The surgery would have been incomplete if the atrium was not properly reconstructed with sufficient chamber space. The case was challenging as the patient was heavily obese. The conventional sternotomy would have left the patient bedridden for three months. Overcoming the technical challenges like patient safety, establishing proper blood flow through Cardiopulmonary bypass, and anaesthesia risk of hypoventilation, our expert team comprising Dr. Ajeetha P. K and Dr. Naveen Kumar D, Cardiac Anaesthetists successfully removed the mass and gave a new life to the young man. After his first review, the condition of the patient was fine, and his cardiac function is normal” adds Dr. Thejaswi N Marla

Mr. Chandrasekar, Facility Director, Fortis Malar said, “I congratulate the expert team on giving the sole breadwinner a normal life. Given his young age and the difficulty of living with a cardiac mass, surgery is essential. Choosing the right treatment procedure and timely assessment helped the patient to get a new lease of life. We are proud that Dr. Thejaswi N Marla and his team of surgeons, critical care specialists, cardiac anaesthesiologists, and nurses have helped the patient recover quickly”
